Flotsam

I am floating in an ocean.


The depths are alien and entirely immeasurable.

It is dark and I am alone.\

The waves rock me, lulling me into sweet oblivion/.



The saltwater sting in my eyes is the only thing I feel amidst the cold and numbness of my prostrate body/ .


Floating along, floating a(L)one.



BOBBING UP AND DOWN/.//.

S0ul served chilled.



Stiffened limbs akimbo. Mouth agape.


Deadening.


/\Waves slowly churning-mouth fills with foam and seaweed.


I am euphoric with the cleansing.


The black calm.

I just lay there.


I just lay there.

I lay \there drifting and my hair tangles





,gets caught in my


eyelashes .
